Left Right Left : A different view .

Chapter 1

"Ky hua ?"(What happened)

She just kept sobbing , I knew she will not be able to say anything at all I looked at rummy signaling him to take her , he did as I said . I went to where Alekh and MG Gaur are standing.

 I saluted MG Gaur he said "At ease captain ."

Even he was sad , which is shocking . He continued "Captain Sharma will brief you on the situation , I hope you will be able to handle the mission . You will be the commanding officer on this mission . I really trust you Naina ." 

That was it , this meant that it's something personal not just a mission . I replied " I try my best sir , I won't let you down ."

He left with this assurance. I turned and looked at Alekh and before I could ask anything, he dropped the bomb himself, 

" Abhimanyu sir aur Gunny missing hai. Dono kissi mission pe the, Kal rat se dono me se kissi se bhi contact nahi ho pa raha. We have no idea ki wo kis mission per the , unke is mission se related na to koi bhi aur officer hai aor na hi koi bhi paper trail. All we do know is wo dono is academic session mein KMA as teachers gay the phir se. "(Abhimanyu sir and Gunny Sir are missing. We have not been able to establish any kind of contact with either of them. We have no idea which mission they were on, neither is there any other officer on this mission nor could we find any kind of paper trail to track. All we do know is that they had been In KMA for this academic session as teachers .)

I was shocked As if my world had changed again. I hold a special place for both of them. Abhimanyu sir was a friend and the only person who knew the pain If feel after all he also lost both of them. Gunny was a savior for me he saved my life 2 times and also ........ our recent history was a part of all this. A history that I can't think about now, I had been avoiding him because of it. All of sudden this. I stopped my chain of thoughts gathered my self and took charge. 

"Unki last known location kahan ki hai ?" I asked, (What was their last known location)

"KMA ke peeche wale jungle ki " replied Pooja. ( The jungle right behind the KMA premises.)

" Hum unko Satellite ki through track krne ki koshish kr rahe hain but it seems unki phones wahin junle mein ruk gae hai, wahan ek team bhi gai thi but nothing came up ." Huda kept looking at files all the while briefing me. ( We have tried to track them using stellite signals but it looks like their phones have been left in the jungle. A team went in there but nothing came up.)

After hearing everything and looking at all the related facts in the file I had in my hands I gave my orders to everybody " Mujhe unki phones ki exact location chahiye, I also need their phone records for the past three months, har ek call ki details chahiye mujhe, I want someone tracking and taping every call going in and out of KMA . I want a thorough detail on every faculty member of KMA And also of the cadets. Mujhe ye sab ajj subha 6 baje tak meri desk pe chahiye."  (I want the exact locations of their phone as well as a record of their phone, every call, and text detail . I want someone tracking and taping every call going in and out of KMA. I want a thorough detail on every faculty member of KMA And also of the cadets. I want all of this at my desk by 6 O'Clock today . )

I looked at Akriti and I knew what she must be going through at this moment, after all, I too have been through this, the difference is she has hope I didn't. I looked at Rummy  I knew what Gunny meant to him I went and hugged him. 

"Alekh " I said ," Hume chalna hoga as soon as location mil jae hum dono nikal jaenge , KMA mein call krke bta dena ke hum wahan bhi aenge  ." (Alekh, we need to go there as soon as we have the locations, we leave. Call KMA And let them know we are coming.)

Akriti got up from her place out of her trance now, she said " Mai bhi chalungi " .(I'll come as well ) 

I didn't have the heart to tell her no. I also asked Rummy to come along I needed some to look after her. I knew I could not be weak now, I had to be strong for all of them, the moment I break they all will.

With a clear set of orders everybody carried on with their work, I just had to wait to know . This is the most agonizing wait ever. Not just for me but for everyone present there. it was nearly 5:30 when Yudi called and told us the location of the phones, as soon as we had the location in our hand we left. Me Alekh, Akriti and Rummy left for the place where our journey started, back to KMA ........
